#2 buy a commercial made hive to start- then you can duplicate parts to make more

#3 learn, read, learn, study, repeat

I did this, and then friend and boater JoJo calls me up and says:

“I have a beehive that I don’t have the time to properly care for- if you could move it and take care of it, you can have it.”

Fast forward- I am raising bees on land that is approximately 1 mile from the Millstream put-in. I will have limited amounts of ‘very local’, raw (meaning- unpasteurized and unfiltered) honey for sale race weekend at the sales table. I will be donating a percentage of sales from this weekend to the MWA for their “swift water rescue course” participate sponsorship. Thank you all for your support and encouragement.

Thanks to the sales table for displaying the honey for me. Thanks to all who purchased honey. Thanks to the MWA for helping me-I wish I could have sold more, I could have donated more. I will normally have small amounts with me when I am in the river area.

Place chicken in a slow cooker. In a bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, Italian dressing, brown sugar, and Worcestershire. Pour sauce over the chicken and cover with lid. Cook 6-8 hours on low or 3-4 hours on high. Remove chicken from the slow cooker and shred using two forks. Return the chicken to the slow cooker to coat with sauce and serve on kaiser rolls.
